Planning a party for a teenager can be a difficult balance of finding something they deem ?cool? and something parents feel is safe and appropriate. Teenagers, regardless of how much they want to be adults, are still big kids at heart who love to laugh, act silly, and burn off energy. Inflatable outdoor games are a perfect idea for teen parties. Contrary to what many realize, inflatable rentals are much more than kid's slides and bouncers. Today's inflatable rentals are fun, physical, and truly unique. Below you'll find a list of the top-rated inflatable outdoor games for teenagers:

Inflatable Sumo Wrestling

In this hilarious game, teens strap themselves into enormous inflatable sumo suits and try to topple each other over. When the unlucky contestant tips over, there's no getting up easily in this big round sumo suit. Teens love the physical aspect of this game and parent's like the fact that it's a safe and fun way to be competitive. This inflatable outdoor game doesn't require a lot of space. The mat is approximately 16 feet in circumference ? perfect for those with a limited amount of outdoor space.

Human Bowling

Everyone has a blast with the human bowling inflatable rental. It's just as much fun to roll your friend down the enormous inflatable bowling lane as it is to get strapped into the 4 foot steel ball itself and try to knock down the pins. Human bowling requires a fairly large space with its 30ft by 8ft area. This game is great if you've got a larger outdoor area or will be renting a park for the party.

The Rock Climbing Wall

This outdoor activity isn't inflatable, but several piece of solid plastic that the rental company will assemble upon delivery. Having a rock climbing wall at the party is sure to be something that will be talked about and remembered. The wall is a physical and comparatively competitive activity for more mellow crowds that aren't interested in dueling head to head. A harness is included so teens can take chances and push their limits while still feeling safe and secure. Since the mass of the rock climbing wall is vertical instead of horizontal, it requires very little space and is well suited for smaller yards.

Inflatable Slip and Slide

This isn't the tiny strip of plastic you remember as a kid! The inflatable slip and slide is gigantic at 12 feet wide and 30 feet long. It's made with super slick lanes and an extra padded back and sides for hours of entertainment. These inflatable rentals only require a garden hose to get the party slipping and sliding. The inflatable slip and slide is great idea for younger teens with lots of energy and a perfect compliment to a pool party.

Trying to find something that both parents and teens can agree on can be challenging at best. The last thing any teen wants at their party is for guests to be bored or have their parent's organizing activities. Outdoor rentals give teens the opportunity to enjoy some structured chaos, burn off lots of energy, and have a lot of fun.
